You have just purchased one of our appliances and we thank you for the trust you have placed in our products. Please note that

the product will provide good service for a longer period of time if it is regularly checked and maintained. Our customer support

network is at your disposal at all times.

The Benchmark Scheme

Benchmark places responsibilities on both manufacturers and installers.

The purpose is to ensure that customers are provided with the correct

equipment for their needs, that it is installed, commissioned and

serviced in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions by

competent persons and that it meets the requirements of the

appropriate Building Regulations. The Benchmark Checklist can be

used to demonstrate compliance with Building Regulations and should

be provided to the customer for future reference.

Installers are required to carry out installation, commissioning and

servicing work in accordance with the Benchmark Code of Practice

which is available from the Heating and Hotwater Industry Council who

manage and promote the Scheme. Visit www.centralheating.co.uk for

more information.

Building Regulations and the Benchmark Commissioning

Checklist

Building Regulations (England & Wales) require notification of the

installation of a heating appliance to the relevant Local Authority

Building Control Department. This can be achieved via a

Competent Persons Self Certification Scheme as an option to

notifying the Local Authority directly.

The Health & Safety Executive operates the ‘Gas Safe Register’, a self-

certification scheme for gas heating appliances.

This company is a member of the Benchmark initiative and fully

supports the aims of the programme. Its aim is to improve the

standards of installation and commissioning of central heating systems

in the UK and to encourage the regular servicing of all central heating

systems to ensure safety and efficiency.

Building Regulations require that installations should comply with

manufacturer's instructions. It is therefore important that the

commissioning checklist is completed by the installer. The relevant

section of Building Regulations only relates to dwellings. Therefore the

checklist only applies if the appliance is being installed in a dwelling or

some related structure.

The flowchart opposite gives guidance for installers on the process

necessary to ensure compliance with Building Regulations.

2.1 General Safety Instructions

2.2 Recommendations

WARNING

Installation, repair and maintenance must be carried

out by a Gas Safe Registered Engineer

(in accordance with prevailing local and national

regulations).

When working on the boiler, always disconnect the

boiler from the mains and close the main gas inlet

valve.

After maintenance or repair work, check the

installation to ensure that there are no leaks.

CAUTION

The boiler should be protected from frost.

Only remove the casing for maintenance and repair

operations. Replace the casing after maintenance

and repair operations.

DANGER

If you smell gas:

1. Turn off the gas supply at the meter

2. Open windows and doors in the hazardous area

3. Do not operate light switches

4. Do not operate any electrical equipment

5. Do not use a telephone in the hazardous area

6. Extinguish any naked flame and do not smoke

2 Safety

2.3 Specific Safety Instructions

2.3.1 Handling

General

• The following advice should be adhered to, from when first

handling the boiler to the final stages of installation, and

also during maintenance.

• Most injuries as a result of inappropriate handling and lifting

are to the back, but all other parts of the body are

vulnerable, particularly shoulders, arms and hands. Health

& Safety is the responsibility of EVERYONE.

• There is no ‘safe’ limit for one man - each person has

different capabilities. The boiler should be handled and lifted

by TWO PEOPLE.

• Do not handle or lift unless you feel physically able.

• Wear appropriate Personal Protection Equipment

e.g. protective gloves, safety footwear etc.

Preparation

• Co-ordinate movements - know where, and when, you are

both going.

• Minimise the number of times needed to move the boiler -

plan ahead.

• Always ensure when handling or lifting the route is clear

and unobstructed. If possible avoid steps, wet or slippery

surfaces, unlit areas etc. and take special care on

ladders/into lofts.

Technique

• When handling or lifting always use safe techniques - keep

your back straight, bend your knees. Don’t twist - move your

feet, avoid bending forwards and sideways and keep the

load as close to your body as possible.

• Where possible transport the boiler using a sack truck or

other suitable trolley.

• Always grip the boiler firmly, and before lifting feel where the

weight is concentrated to establish the centre of gravity,

repositioning yourself as necessary. See the ‘Installation’

section of these instructions for recommended lift points.

Remember

• The circumstances of each installation are different. Always

assess the risks associated with handling and lifting

according to the individual conditions.

• If at any time when installing the boiler you feel that you

may have injured yourself STOP !! DO NOT ‘work through’

the pain - you may cause further injury.

IF IN ANY DOUBT DO NOT HANDLE OR LIFT THE BOILER -

OBTAIN ADVICE OR ASSISTANCE BEFORE PROCEEDING !

5. The boiler data badge gives details of the model, serial

number and Gas Council number and is situated on the boiler

lower panel. It is visible when the control box is lowered (Fig. 2).

6. The boiler model, serial number and Gas Council number are

also shown on the information label behind the boiler control flap

(Fig. 1). This is for user reference.

7. The boiler is intended to be installed in residential/domestic

environments on a governed meter supply only.

8. The boiler must be installed with one of the purpose designed

flues such as one of the standard horizontal telescopic flue kits

detailed in the Flue Installation Guide .

All systems must be thoroughly cleansed, flushed and

treated with inhibitor (see section 5.2.6).

These Installation & Servicing Instructions MUST be

read in conjunction with the Flue Installation Guide supplied in

the Literature Pack.

There are a number of dimensional differences between

the 32 model and the lower output versions. These are detailed

in Section 14. Also the position of the expansion vessel differs -

it is at the left on 32, and the flue adaptor on the 32 is offset to

the right when viewed from the front - other models have the

adaptor to the left.

4 Description of the Product

4.2 Operating Principle

4.2.1 Central Heating Mode

1. With a demand for heating, the pump circulates water through

the primary circuit.

2. Once the burner ignites the fan speed controls the gas rate to

maintain the heating temperature measured by the temperature

sensor.

3. When the flow temperature exceeds the setting temperature,

a 3 minute delay occurs before the burner relights automatically

(anti-cycling). The pump continues to run during this period.

4. When the demand is satisfied the burner is extinguished and

the pump continues to run for a period of 3 minutes (pump

overrun).

4.2.2 Boiler Frost Protection Mode

1. The frost protection mode is integral to the appliance and

functions as long as there is power to the boiler, as indicated by

the standby signal .

2. With the boiler in ‘On’ mode and when the boiler temperature

falls below 5°C the boiler will fire until a temperature of 30°C is

reached.

3. Further protection can be incorporated by using a system

frost thermostat.

4.2.3 Pump Protection

1. This activates once a week if there has been no demand. The

pump runs for 30 seconds to prevent sticking.
